Luke 1:30-31 - Then the angel told her: Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31 Now listen: You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you will call His name Jesus.
Matthew 1:20-21 - an angel of the Lord suddenly appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, don’t be afraid to take Mary as your wife, because what has been conceived in her is by the Holy Spirit. 21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to name Him Jesus, because He will save His people from their sins.”
JESUS:
Greek: iēsous (ee-ay-sooce') - Ἰησοῦς
Hebrew: Yᵊšûʿâ (yesh-oo'-aw) - יְשׁוּעָה; See also: yᵊhôšûaʿ (yeh-ho-shoo'-ah)
-Salvation, Deliverance (by God)
-Jesus = “Jehovah is Salvation”
-Jesus, the Son of God, the Savior of mankind, God incarnate.
Isaiah 45:22-23 - Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth. For I am God, and there is no other. 23 By Myself I have sworn; Truth has gone from My mouth, a word that will not be revoked: Every knee will bow to Me, every tongue will swear allegiance.
Philippians 2:9-11 - For this reason God highly exalted Him and gave Him the name that is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow— of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth— 11 and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
YAHWEH IS NOW SUPERIMPOSED UPON THE NAME OF YESHUA .
YAHWEH = YESHUA - GOD IS JESUS, JESUS IS GOD
Acts 4:7-8,10&12 - they had Peter and John stand before them, they asked the question: “By what power or in what name have you done this?” 8 Then Peter was filled with the Holy Spirit and said to them… 10 let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene—whom you crucified and whom God raised from the dead—by Him this man is standing here before you healthy. 12 There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to people, and we must be saved by it.”
RECOGNITION AND SURRENDER TO THE NAME OF JESUS CHANGES EVERYTHING.
Matthew 16:13-18 - When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?” 14 And they said, “Some say John the Baptist; others, Elijah; still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15 “But you,” He asked them, “who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God!” 17 And Jesus responded, “Simon son of Jonah, you are blessed because flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but My Father in heaven. 18 And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the forces of Hades will not overpower it.
THE NAME OF JESUS CHANGES WHO AND WHAT WE LIVE FOR.
A LIFE LIVED FOR SIN & FOR SELF AND NOT FOR JESUS LEADS TO DEATH.
Romans 10:9 & 13 -If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 13 For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
